Rolls Royce of Post Pounders

[Northern Rancher]

I've been fencing in the PFRA pasture for a custom outfit-this pounder has a pilot auger and is self propelled-it's got orbit motors on both wheels so you can drive it either way with levers from the back. Our local Co-op has a couple of these engine drive ones that aren't self propelled for sale at 7500 bucks. Anybody interested-I could make a delivery trip.

Hello NR, I wonder if you can get one with tracks? We have spent the last two of several days pounding posts along a very muddy creek at the outlet of a lake on a place we are renting.We are packing the posts and braces in on foot and pounding with a hand pounder.We are hanging four strands of wire and we can roll them out with an atv but it is like walking and working on the worlds largest mattress.

Any excuse for a road trip hey Northern?

That's one heck of a post hole pounder!Looks like a mini well drilling rig.Well,be careful with that thing.

Hey NR, if you can talk Don into it - I'll take one under the tree. Looks like the thing is already Christmas wrapped so throw in a ribbon and bow
One stipulation - it has to be rigged up with a Honda motor .

EDITED in: Number two stipulation - diet must also be included (I just read about your fencing diet)


And hello to everyone else - are you all ready for seasonal weather?

I saw one of those Jonsered Iron Horse track things last weekend, I was tying to brainstorom how you could use one for fencing.

The bigger fencing dealer in the NE has one of those Wheathart's for rent. I think there's has something with pressurized water for the pilot hole. I ended up buying a Shaver because I didn't want to drive 3 to 3.5 hrs each way to rent one, plus it will get its use over the years.

I'm dissapointed with Shaver, they came out with an auger and I bought an HD-10 planning to add the auger later, then I found out from Kencove that it only goes 18". They're supposed to be working on one that does like 42", last time I checked with them it was an idea and hadn't been designed.

Wheatheart is an awesome company-this is actually a prototype-it works great-it would be the cat's meow for building corrals-you can maneuver it anywhere.
